Crispy Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon
Enjoy a beautifully seared salmon fillet with a crispy skin, accompanied by tender roasted asparagus and a bright squeeze of fresh lemon. This dish balances rich, succulent fish with the light crispness of asparagus, making it a perfect meal to satisfy both taste and nutritional goals.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Salmon Fillet
6 Spears Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
When the oil is hot, place the salmon skin-side down in the pan. Press lightly with a spatula to ensure even contact.
Cook the salmon for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through.
While the salmon cooks, preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the asparagus spears with a tiny drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet and roast for 8-10 minutes until tender.
Plate the salmon and asparagus together. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the salmon for a bright, fresh finish.
